    Great post. This fellow appreciates that he has an audience and provides thm with interesting dialogue about the films he selects with just the right amount of detail and heaps of enthusiasm. I appreciate these guests so much especially compared to others who barely name the movie, fail to show the cover and just shove it in their bag. From Jeremy in Australia a big thanks to Jeremy O. Harris for showing such joy and interest in sharing your knowledge and reactions.

      One reason for why few Turkish films get released has to be that the film elements of a lot of older Turkish cinema are in poor condition, the materials have not been well taken care of. Same thing with many classic Bollywood films.
